I’ve been a bit quiet on the blog front of late. Partly because I think I’m still recovering from the Thirty Day Writing Challenge, partly because I’ve actually been recovering from a nasty lingering cold that’s been running rampant around here (even the Queen had it), and partly because I’ve been trying to untangle theContinue reading “Walking A Tangled Path”

30 Day Writing Challenge – Day Thirty – What I Wrote
Well, here we are, folks. The final day of the 30 Day Writing Challenge. To be honest, I don’t think I’ll take on a challenge like this again. I don’t mind the shorter ones, three quotes or five days, that sort of thing, but I found this one a bit much. Perhaps I don’t likeContinue reading “30 Day Writing Challenge – Day Thirty – What I Wrote”
30 Day Blog Challenge – Day 29 – One Hundred Years
It’s day twenty-nine of the 30 Day Writing Challenge, and today’s prompt is: One Hundred Years. It’s also the second day I’ve been in bed with a rotten head cold, which is kind of a bummer. Streaming eyes and a stuffed up head are not that conducive to writing, or much else for that matter.Continue reading “30 Day Blog Challenge – Day 29 – One Hundred Years”
Wednesday Wander – If You Could Be Anywhere…
It’s Wednesday, so time for my usual Wander, and it’s also day twenty-eight of the 30 Day Writing Challenge. Today’s prompt is: If. Initially, I considered the Rudyard Kipling poem If, and doing a Wander related to that. But Kipling was so well-travelled I couldn’t really settle on one place, and unfortunately I’ve not yetContinue reading “Wednesday Wander – If You Could Be Anywhere…”
Too Many – 30 Day Writing Challenge
It’s Christmas Eve, and also day twenty-four of the 30 Day Writing Challenge. Today’s prompt is: Too Many Now, the obvious thing to write about today would be presents- as in, is there such a thing as ‘too many’? If you asked my daughter I’m sure she’d say no. However, when I cast around forContinue reading “Too Many – 30 Day Writing Challenge”
30 Day Writing Challenge – Day 23 – Wrong Way
It’s day 23 of the 30 Day Challenge, and today’s prompt is: Wrong Way. As there really is no wrong way to respond to these prompts, I’ve decided to post a quotation by Louis L’Amour: We are, finally, all wanderers in search of knowledge. Most of us hold the dream of becoming something better thanContinue reading “30 Day Writing Challenge – Day 23 – Wrong Way”
30 Day Writing Challenge – Day Twenty – Supermarket
It’s day twenty of the Thirty Day Writing Challenge, and today’s prompt is: Supermarket. I was going to write a little piece about how I have to go to the supermarket tomorrow, and how at this time of year it’s heaving with people pushing overloaded trolleys and looking perplexed, as though they’ve never been inContinue reading “30 Day Writing Challenge – Day Twenty – Supermarket”
30 Day Writing Challenge – Day Nineteen – Walk Away
So, it’s day nineteen of the 30 Day Writing Challenge, and today’s prompt is: Walk Away. I’m starting to wonder why I chose to undertake a thirty day blogging challenge during one of the busiest times of the year. A time where there are lunches and dinners and drinks, shopping and cooking and work andContinue reading “30 Day Writing Challenge – Day Nineteen – Walk Away”
30 Day Writing Challenge – Day Eighteen – Warning
It’s day eighteen of the 30 Day Writing Challenge, and today’s prompt is: Warning. When I read the prompt it made me think of the weather and how quickly it can change – in Melbourne they say you can experience all four seasons in one day, and when I lived there I soon learned toContinue reading “30 Day Writing Challenge – Day Eighteen – Warning”
30 Day Writing Challenge – Day Seventeen – Early Morning
Earlier this week I shared this image on my Instagram account. It was taken one early morning as I walked past the park. Mist hung low beneath the trees, the light behind turning them to silhouettes and it seemed so serene to me, the mist like a blanket on the grass, that I had toContinue reading “30 Day Writing Challenge – Day Seventeen – Early Morning”
